Inclement Weather

SchoolMessenger

Every family registered with Greenfield Public Schools will receive an automated telephone call (via SchoolMessenger) with information regarding closings, delays, early dismissals, or other urgent weather and safety-related information.

The school department updates Local Radio (WHAI 98.3 and 1240 AM and WHYN 560) and television stations (News 40, 22 News, Western Mass News, and NECN).
